A fascinating tweet was posted this evening by Concrete creator Paul Chadwick. Saying nothing more than what is in the tweet below, Chadwick has vowed to one day elaborate on the incredible information that the late Douglas Adams, writer of the magnificent The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy series, was under consideration to write the second Ewok TV movie, The Battle For Endor.

Could you imagine the mind of Adams, who created one of the great sci-fi series in H2G2 that arrived at the same time as Star Wars in the late 70’s and who also wrote in the Doctor Who universe, entering the Star Wars galaxy to tell a tale. Tragically taken from us aged just 49 back in 2001 we will never hear the story from him directly, but hopefully Chadwick elaborates on this tweet.
